BSG TOS builds

OK so, I just got back into modeling and one of my fave themes is Battlestar Galactica. Even as a kid I never had BSG models. Just everything else, which I no longer have after 35 yahrens.
So I went on a spree and picked up 13 TOS Vipers, 6 TOS Raiders and one Galactica 78.
Heres my Raider I just completed. I actually had a blast with the Raider so I bought more. LOL
First time I'd done weathering with chalk.

Next is my 2nd Viper that I built specifically for Dirk Benedict to sign.

For the Battlestar I actually have 15 tiny vipers and 9 raiders, about 1/4 in long. Still over scale for the Battlestar but I think I can make it work and do a battle scene.
For the 1/32 Vipers and 1/45 Raiders, I may have a couple hanging for a small dog fight, but I'm building other vipers for autographs if I get the chance. The rest will be hopefully in a -10ft launch bay/ and or flight deck display. I just started so we'll see how big it will become. LOL
Seeing others post their dioramas has inspired me to push my limits.
